If you see long grass along a body of water on a golf course, it’s not there because the maintenance team forgot to mow! Our USGA Green Section explains why these “buffer strips” are important.

Course accessories can cost a small fortune and they require lots of maintenance. Too many of them can also make a course look and feel cluttered. As with many things, less is usually more.

It’s project season. 1-5500 cubic yards of sediment being dug out of #3 pond 2-building retaining wall behind cart barn 3-catch basin on #1 4-refurbishing fairway trap on #3 (not pictured) 5-draining left of 17 green

Wind and rain battered the eastern U.S. and it's going to take some time for golf courses to dry out and get cleaned up. Golfers should remember that many courses are light on staff and soils dry slower in winter, so patience will be needed.

Course weathered the storm fine. They can officially get rid of the drought notice. It’s wet out here #raleighgolf #riverridge

Fairway bunker on 3 is being refurbished. The contaminated sand was spread between cart path on 3 and 4t to level off that area. We just planted ryegrass there today to stabilize the sand. Still deciding on long term grass for this area.

Different look this year. Brown greens. Some golfers are confused. I say “If you get confused, listen to the music play” River Ridge GC #raleighgolf #rollawaythedew

Poured four 4x4 concrete pads for short game targets in driving range this morning. Will paint different colors once cured.

Thanks to all who came out this morning for Divot Day. 15 tons of sand, approximately 30,000 divots filled.

Members: With the masters on the horizon, friendly reminder that theirs 23 people working on one bunker here

Have you ever wondered why superintendents topdress the greens with sand? We've got some answers 👇

Pool renovation has begun. 1st step is coping edge being removed.

Sand blasting continues on the pool. Water line tile removal has begun.

Wading pool is gone, soon to be a charcoal grill in this area. Also got a pool cover for the newly refinished pool.

Tile install is pretty much wrapped up at the pool bathrooms. Looking great, see for yourself.

The dry stack rock wall is coming along on 16 pond. Maintenance crew is crushing it!

Husqvarna 580 is setup and mowing GreenSight River Ridge GC

River Ridge Demo Day was a success! Thank you Craig Hooks for hosting & giving feedback on the new 580L. One mower managed both rough and approach/fwy turf daily for three weeks (w/ consistent rain) & had great results. Schedule your GreenSight demo today!

Turf growth and recovery have been lagging in many parts of the Southeast this spring. There are some things superintendents can do to manage the effects of slower spring growth, but patience is still needed 👇

The most important thing to know about green speed is that faster does not necessarily mean better 👇
